[GitHub] [incubator-pinot] yupeng9 opened a new issue #5881: Add string type support to MIN/MAX aggregation functions

yupeng9 opened a new issue #5881:
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-pinot/issues/5881


   Since Pinot supports string comparison, it will be nice to add the string type support to MIN/MAX aggregation functions, similar to other SQL engines like [mysql](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/aggregate-functions.html#function_max). 
   
   For example, it can be used to find the earliest/latest date from string format.

   Thanks for raising this issue.
   I've also got many users asking for this.
   
   In general we need to change min/max function to handle all types instead of just numeric values.
